SOME supporters see three points, gift-wrapped and ready to go – but David Moyes sees danger lurking in the visit of QPR.

The Blues boss knows the expectation among fans is that his in-form side will comfortably dispatch the relegation-haunted Londoners, but Moyes insists today’s game is even more high-pressured than Tuesday’s daunting trip to face Arsenal at the Emirates.

That’s because the Scot knows his men cannot afford to slip-up at home if they are to maintain their lingering hopes of making the top four.

He admits most outside the blue half of Merseyside have already written Everton off in the race for the Champions League places, but Moyes is content that they will still have a say in their destiny.

“If we get six points from the next two games, I’d say we would be right back in it,” says the Toffees boss, who has Marouane Fellaini and Steven Pienaar available again this afternoon after suspension.

“At the end of the season sometimes it doesn’t matter whether you are at the top or the bottom.

“There are a lot of draws at this time of the season, there is not an awful lot between the teams, games can be edged one way or the other and you are not sure how the results are going to go. And that is why for us the QPR game is a difficult one. Most people expect us to win and it is a dangerous game for that reason.

“I think there is more pressure on us against QPR than Tuesday night – all you can ever do is be focused on the next one. If we don’t get a result against QPR, Tuesday night might be less important. We have to try and make sure this is the key and try and win and then we will try and take it into Tuesday.”

Harry Redknapp’s men may be staring at the drop, but they have no shortage of high-profile players courtesy of the riches of chairman Tony Fernandes and his mega-bucks board.

With stars such as Christopher Samba, Loic Remy and Stephane M’Bia onboard, the R’s have a fighting chance of remaining in the top flight – and Moyes is at least reassured that he is getting answers on how the financial landscape at Goodison will shape-up this summer.

That is one of the key issues he wants clarity on before making up his mind on whether to sign a new contract, and he admits that talks with Bill Kenwright on the matter have progressed satisfactorily.

“I have had a bit more information about how I am going to be able to spend and use the money and a lot of it is to do with the Premier League rules as well,” he says.

“I have been getting some good feedback.

“The club are obviously doing everything they can to make sure we have got what we need. We have a side that we need to start thinking about turning around a little bit.”

Despite that reassurance Moyes is standing by his decision to wait until the season is over before deciding on his future.

“There is nothing new at the moment,” he says. “ I talk with the chairman regularly, but there won’t be anything until the end of the season.”

Moyes is fully aware that if he does sign a new deal, he faces the task of reshaping his team.

“We’re probably at a stage where we are on the verge of having to start rebuilding a new team,” he says. “That’s the way forward.

Juggling the demands of rebuilding a squad with the busy schedule of a potential European campaign will be a big test for him, and Moyes has sympathy with Wednesday’s comments by Reds boss Brendan Rodgers, who said his side might benefit from a season out of Europe to give them a chance to focus on the Premier League.

“They’re fortunate; they’ve been in Europe this season and in years before,” he says. “We’ve missed it over the last couple of years. But I take the point. And I think if we make it into Europe, we’re going to have to find a way of getting another five or six players on top of what we’ve got – because of the way your squad’s affected.

“Newcastle have had a brilliant run in the Europa League and so have Tottenham. The clubs that don’t have a big enough squad are the ones who get affected by playing Thursday-Sunday. I think the Champions League’s different. Playing on a Wednesday makes a big difference.

“It’s maybe just a small psychological difference. But over the course of the season, if you continue playing Thursday-Sunday, it can disrupt your working week.”
